ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to braking devices employed with creepers. Provision of a brake which eliminates or greatly reduces undesirable head, arm and hand, and other body movements required to actuate braking is achieved by this invention. A brake control flap (23) is attached to or formed at the rear of the creeper floor (12, 13). A brake (21) with resilient strip (26) is attached to the underside of the flap (23). Weight placement causes the flap (23) to bend from a straight conformation level with the floor (13) into a downwardly arcuate conformation disposing the resilient strip (26) against the ground.
